Evidence of Design Attests to the Existence of a Designer

Introduction to Cultural Intelligent Design

If I am to enter the fray honestly, I must admit that creationists and Darwinists have an agenda outside scientific discussion overr the origin of the universe. Affecting knowledge about God’s existence, his presence and influence in the context of social order runs as an undercurrent through both camps. The battle field between the parties is not level. We debate on multiple levels concurrently, and this debate is not limited to discussing creationist events.

The argument has been proffered, mostly by Darwinists, that they desire a purely scientific, rational discussion of facts and measurable scientific data while creationists are editorialized as wild eyed crazies who need to get their facts straight and join the 21^st century. However when engaging the argument, the opposite is most often true. Creationists focus on scientific theory and evidence to reintroduce God into the social equation. At the same time, rabid Darwinists seek to keep God in his current status – ex-communicated from social context, and what is labeled intelligent thought. According to evolutionists, God, faith and religious tradition should not become a meaningful part of the serious scientific dialogue

As reflected in the title, this blog goes beyond the issue of Intelligent Design in creation. Cultural Intelligent Design – this blog will step farther into the unknown, and identify, discuss and debate how the Judeo-Christian God’s (Yahweh, Jehovah, Christ, or Jesus) presence and purpose is evident in our social order.

If scientists are arrayed against the intrusion of God into their laboratories, social scientists, humanists and educators are rabidly opposed to the idea that God may have an overarching set of principles which apply to social order and cultural constructs. After all, we are free, self sufficient, and self determined people. Can we risk releasing an omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient Being to meddle in our social reality? The idea that He gets to call the shots is totally unacceptable to social humanists who have labored for decades to encapsulate God in ornate buildings, allowing his influence to be expounded upon and debated for a few hours on Sunday mornings. “After all,” they reason, “it’s my life. It’s my community. I am a free being, and no one is going to tell me what to do.”
